I stumbled upon Roobaroo walks whilst researching Varanasi. My husband I wanted an easy tour without breaking the bank. And we got it in spades I texted Roobaroo and got a very quick response . Tulika responded with details and costs( which were very reasonable). She then gave the profile of the guide - impressive! We met Anupam at sharp 5 pm. He was lovely from the get go. Full of anecdotes and fascinating information. I am a Hindu, my husband isn’t but Anupam managed to get both of us into the tour. We were lucky that it was just the both of us so we took our time. The boat ride was so peaceful. We had ringside view of the evening aarti as well which was unexpected. I would have loved to have done the walking tour but our time in Varanasi was extremely short. I am so glad that we found Roobaroo Walks. I would highly recommend them for an insightful and engaging tour.
